OUR INTESTINES EVEN INTERFERE WITH WHAT WE EAT
What is it desirable to tell with a good immune system? Why are fibrous foods important? Should we consume avocado oil while living in the homeland of olive oil? Should we consume gluten or not? Turkey Medicals – we asked Pulmonologist and Immunologist Doctor in Antalya ICO hospital, who examines the ways to live healthy with natural nutrition. We got tasting information…
We don’t just think with our brains
The reason why a very large part of our immune system is built into the intestines is that, although the intestines are considered internal organs, they are actually constantly exposed to foreign factors, such as outside the body. In order to filter nutrients, the intestinal wall is lined with a single row of cell layers. This brings with it the risk of getting some unwanted substances into the blood easily.
The importance of the intestine comes not only from the elements of the immune system here. At the same time, the balance of microbes in the intestine is also important. Do you think that this is what you want when you want something? In fact, microbes in our intestines even interfere with what we eat, sending a kind of signal to our brain. So, we’re not just ‘thinking’ with our brains. The balance of ‘good germ’ and ‘bad germ’ in the intestine is very important in this respect. Constant malnutrition, stress, insomnia, exposure to toxins, frequent use of antibiotics. In return, the intestine will not thank you.
Let’s not stay still
What we take into our body is very important for intestinal health. Chemicals, additives, preservatives, roasts, overcooked foods. We will exclude them all from our diet. We’ll have plenty of water. Fibrous foods increase the volume of stool by retaining water and prevent constipation. Fibrous foods are ’prebiotic’. In other words, it is a source of nutrients for ‘probiotic’ bacteria that are beneficial for our health. If we eat probiotics well, our immunity will strengthen. We will ‘train’ our intestine. If possible, we will go to the toilet at the same time every morning. We will not postpone this when the feeling of defecation comes. We will try not to lead a sedentary life.
Sesame and tahini are superfoods
You can prescribe a quality source of protein for immunity to the head. Especially since fish is both a good source of protein and provides omega-3 fatty acids, which are insufficient in our diet in the modern world, it should take its place on the table several times a week. Again, let’s not miss the egg, which is a good source of protein, from our table, provided that it is obtained, if possible, from free-roaming chickens. Garlic, broccoli, cabbage.
Oh, yeah, all the fruits are sugar. We hardly agree with his opinion. Of course, let’s not overdo it with fruits, too. I think it is necessary to eat a measured amount of fruit if we are not diabetic, if we do not have insulin resistance.
Let’s introduce green tea into our daily lives. Nigella and turmeric are a must-have. And honey. This valuable nutrient contains eight ‘essential’ amino acids that we have to take from the outside because we cannot produce them in the body.
Yogurt, kefir, home marinade, vinegar… It is useful to consume these nutrients every day, not ending with counting the benefits for immunity. Sesame and tahini are also superfoods.
